Hoshi's Story

Hashi is a rare Finnish spitz breed that is about the size of a German Shepherd., 75# He is pretty low key energy in the house but is one to explore outside. They are actually bred to take on bears and other large wildlife without hesitation and to the death of it were to be. No we are not adopting him out to do that, but rather to be a loyal dedicated companion for an active family that will take him for long walk daily or run him at a dog park to help burn off some energy. Hashi has been around cats and dogs does well with all. Foster parent indicates that once he acclimated into the home he became playful with the other dogs. He has been around children as young as 5yrs old and does very well. He will need a fenced yard or means of confinement...he does have experience with E-collars for training (in the past) so he may do ok with invisible fencing.. Hashi does not have experience with livestock or defending again bears/wildlife but he'll certainly let you know when the mailman comes to the door. <br/>Please do research on the breed, they do need someone with some experience, just like other moderate-high energy and stubbornness breeds. Hashi does take a little bit to warm up and bond to to his humans but not aggressive by any means. <br/>If you want more information, feel free to contact the foster parent at (218)640-1930 or (218)371-1212, call or text.

After the conference call we set up a meet and greet and allow the family to come to meet the pet and determine if the animal will be a good fit with the family.
